We had a lot to gain from winning that game,
battle coaches guys half hardly man nicest played players protect sure wants
He's one of the nicest coaches I've played for. He's a man that will go to battle and protect your back. He's one of those guys who always wants to know what the players think and wants to make sure we're OK. ... You don't hardly ever get a coach who wants to know how the players feel. Half of them don't care. They just want to win.
coach dream games playing
I live for games like this. You dream about playing in games like this, win-or-die-type games. Coach will have us ready. We just have to go do it.
guys hearing love might
I love hearing all the know-it-alls say that we couldn't do it. Some of those guys might need to be fired.
biggest matter needed playing stepped wished
I needed one more. I wished I could get one more. This was just a big day, the biggest of my career. It was a matter of going out and playing without fear. My teammates, being where they needed to be, stepped up a whole lot, too. This was just a big game. We needed it.
eliminate game hurt knew next respond step worried
I'm not really worried about this because I know we'll respond next game and step up. We knew they were going to make some plays, but the little things we did to hurt ourselves, we've got to eliminate those and we'll be fine.

Bad luck, that's what it seems like to me, man. We play hard and work on it and get them in practice all the time; it's just not happening in the games.
good playing sports teams
It's good for the town, ... I was used to all the teams playing the same day in Chicago. It made it feel like a real sports town.
game high
They weren't max-protecting like they did the first game. Everyone was just so focused. I've never had a four-sack game in my life. Not high school, college, pickup, whatever.
few game kept last number saying
They've had our number the last few years. They kept saying the first game was a fluke. Now you know. It wasn't a fluke.

It's sad to see because he has battled through his injuries and did some good things in the preseason,
city exposed fans means saw time
This means a lot to our city. You saw how many of our fans were at the game. It's time for this city to be exposed to the playoffs.
bunch deer early enthusiasm field guys instead plays run seemed team tone whoever wondering
There was no enthusiasm ... We just seemed like a bunch of guys like a deer in the headlights, a lot of guys just wondering who is going to make the plays instead of going out and making the play. That's how it was to me. Whoever is on the field first is going to set the tone, and we can't let the other team go down the field and get a long run and set the tone early in the game.
